Benefits of having a C-section
According to a study published in NCBI, 26% of first-time mothers had urinary incontinence 6 months after delivery. The lowest rate was found in elective C-sections (5%), while the rate was slightly higher (12%) in C-sections performed during labor. The rate was even higher after vaginal delivery (22%) and the highest after vaginal forceps delivery (33%).

There is a lower risk of stillbirth
According to the NCBI, the risk of stillbirth can be reduced through C-section, as can the risk of delivery complications such as clinical chorioamnionitis, abnormalities in the baby’s heartbeat, and cord prolapse.

Mother and child protection
Unexpected complications may occur during normal delivery, such as a umbilical cord defect or excessive bleeding. In a planned C-section, all necessary preparations are made keeping these potential complications in mind in advance. This promotes the safety of the mother and the baby and reduces potential risks.

Prevention of labor pain
The most important feature of C-section is that it saves the mother from the pain that occurs during normal delivery. Labor pain is very painful. In planned C-section, the mother is given anesthesia, so that she remains free from any kind of pain during delivery.
